Psalm 70:4

PRAYER AND PRAISE

Psalm 70:4. “Let all those that seek thee rejoice and be glad in thee: and such as love thy salvation say continually, let God be magnified.” PRAYER AND PRAISE.

Deliverance is needed. Oh God – There is no one else to turn to for aid. The need is beyond my ability. Oh God – It seems they will not stop until I am dead. But Thou art God – Supreme, Eternal – The breath of everyone is in Thy hand. I trust Thee, praise Thee – this is personal – It is only in Thee – by Thy grace I stand.

Help, Lord, I am getting older – losing strength That is needed to cross the invisible barrier of generations. For Thy own reasons, Thou allowed these 50 years at length- Privileged to represent Thee – preach the Gospel to the nations. I praise Thee for loving me – letting me serve – Though weak and not articulate, you let me speak. Even the best praises I can offer are insufficient – more He deserves – So, I pray and praise Thee – these simple thoughts – please take.

“To be able to communicate with Thee, Father, is more than I could ever deserve. I fear that I haven’t always been as communicative as I should be. I praise Thee now for hearing my prayers and answering so often, far exceeding my expectations. I praise Thee for who Thou art, in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ, Amen.”
